How to make the cursor follow the screen pointer

Tom
Hi

I want the position of the cursor in the text box to follow the mouse
pointer as the mouse it moved across the text box when a button is
pressed down (it will be a part of a dragdrop procedure).

Does anyone know who to do this? I am completley stumped!

Thanks

Tom
